Hola

Hola,

Conference went really well and we were well recieved. The presentation was really good and the team all performed well and recieved a huge applause. We then went for dinner with huge amounts of meat! Boy am I glad Im vegetarian!  They have been great for us given they are not used to having vegetarians to stay. I have had some amazing foods and have had vegetables that I would not normally used to cooking. Squash has become my favouite along with roasted sweet potatoes.
We are now in Chivilcoy, very rural around the city centre and really lovely. Not  tourist attraction and not some where you would ever find if you were traveling.  This morning started with another radio programme but having been on 4 TV programmes and many different radio programmes we feel very proficient at working on live radio!
Yesterday we went to a huge wheat and Soya farm. I always thought farming was so simple, plough, plant, grow then harvest and start again. But no apparently there is a programme of developing better wheat seeds that takes up to ten years of nuturing and evaluating plants.
Since last writing the blog (time goes so fast here and we have next to no free time) we have done many things. David showed us all how to ride but sadly he and his horse and he chose to go oppersite ways, one minute hey ho silver the next a meeting with the dust!  We have done vocational visits and visits to Rotary projects. Met town mayors and as said completed many newspaper interviews as well as being on radio and tv.  It will be starange to return home without the celebrity hype that follows us here. Also we have allour meals cooked and served and freindships from some really lovely people.....so who wants to come home?
